Biography

Hello and thank you for visiting my site! My name is Jason Shaw. Beside me in the picture, is my beautiful wife, Leah and our beautiful sons, Gibson Davey and Elwood Jack! This is my thirteenth year teaching music in the state of Maryland and my third at Southern Middle School. I received my Bachelors degree in Music Education from Alderson Broaddus College in Philippi, West Virginia. I received my Masters of Education in Instructional Technology at UMUC. Music is my life! When I am not teaching, I am usually performing. I play guitar, bass guitar, trumpet, and sing. I currently perform in several rock and jazz bands. I truly feel that music is a gift that everyone should receive and it is my job to share that with every student. I have enjoyed my career educating young people and look forward to the new challenges ahead! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at jason.shaw@garrettcountyschools.org. Thank you!
